The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Lamando is 5.4-5.6L/100km. Currently, there are 3 models of the Volkswagen Lamando on sale. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Fashion Edition is 5.4L/100km. The Comfort Edition and Luxury Shadow Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.4-5.6L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 5.4-7.6L/100km. Specific factors affecting a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Car weight: Larger and heavier cars tend to consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine and a weight of about 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of approximately 7.5 liters (calculated under full load conditions), while an SUV model weighing about 1.5 tons has a fuel consumption of 8.5 liters. Different weights result in different fuel consumption levels. Drag coefficient: A higher drag coefficient increases fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower drag coefficients, leading to lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: During driving, the engine has a most economical torque output point. If the car's speed is consistently maintained at this torque output point, fuel consumption can be significantly reduced. Generally, small-displacement cars reach this point at about 70 km/h, while large-displacement cars reach it at about 100 km/h. Maintaining speed within this economical RPM range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light can increase fuel consumption.

What are the differences between AT, CVT, and dual-clutch transmissions?

The differences between DCT, CVT, and AT lie in their construction and transmission methods. Here are the specific details: Construction differences: CVT is a continuously variable transmission; DCT is a dual-clutch transmission; AT is a torque converter transmission, which is an automatic transmission with gears. DCT is a stepped transmission, utilizing dual clutches to minimize gear shift shocks. Compared to DCT, CVT is more mature, but its transmission method limits the maximum torque capacity, making it mostly suitable for small-displacement vehicles. Transmission methods differ: CVT uses a steel belt for transmission, while DCT employs two automatically controlled clutches. AT relies entirely on hydraulic torque conversion, i.e., hydraulic oil, to connect the front and rear power. Due to the torque converter’s hydraulic buffering and speed regulation, AT transmissions can achieve smooth starts and seamless crawling. DCT, on the other hand, uses dual clutches for gear shifting and torque conversion, offering more precise and rapid response, especially when paired with engines that deliver more accurate torque output, as it has lower tolerance for torque errors. AT characteristics: Smoothness, driving pleasure, stable quality, compact size, and wide transmission range; however, it has a complex structure, high cost, difficult mechanical manufacturing, and generally lower efficiency compared to DCT. DCT characteristics: Nearly all the functionalities of AT, excellent driving pleasure, moderate cost, challenging control, direct power delivery, and higher efficiency; but its low-speed smoothness is inferior to AT, and it is relatively bulky. CVT characteristics: Affordable, smooth operation, compact size, and simple structure; however, it has a limited transmission ratio, theoretical fuel efficiency (often offset by the need for a higher-power hydraulic pump), and low torque-bearing capacity. DCT is also known as a dual-clutch transmission. Its structure is similar to a manual transmission but features two sets of clutches, which control odd and even gears separately. DCT offers fast gear shifts, high transmission efficiency, and is well-suited for small-displacement turbocharged engines. CVT transmissions are commonly used in some domestic and Japanese vehicles. They are lightweight, compact, and cost-effective. Most cars equipped with CVTs are quite fuel-efficient. CVTs provide seamless shifting and excellent smoothness. AMT is the earliest automatic transmission. Its structure resembles a manual transmission but includes a control mechanism to operate the clutch and gears. AT transmissions exhibit minimal shift shock. Dual-clutch transmissions have noticeable low-speed shift shocks, while AMT transmissions have significant shift shocks and are now obsolete. AT transmissions have high R&D and manufacturing costs and are often used in high-end vehicles. A manual-automatic transmission combines manual and automatic shifting functions. This technology enhances the economy and controllability of automatic transmissions, allowing drivers to manually decide shift timings, thereby improving driving dynamics and experience. A manual-automatic transmission integrates manual and automatic shifting. It combines the advantages of both, minimizing power loss in the transmission system. Unlike pure manual transmissions, manual-automatic transmissions feature a clutch mechanism but operate automatically, requiring no manual clutch operation. When using the manual mode in a manual-automatic car, simply shift to manual and adjust gears up or down based on speed. If the speed doesn’t match the gear, it will automatically downshift; if the speed exceeds the gear, manual upshifting is required. Working principle: Structurally, a manual-automatic transmission consists of a standard gearbox (similar to a manual transmission), an electronically controlled clutch, an automatic shift mechanism, and electronic control components. The electronically controlled clutch automatically engages or disengages the clutch as needed, controlled by the transmission ECU via a stepper motor. The automatic shift mechanism engages the appropriate gear as required, typically using two stepper motors controlled by the transmission ECU. The gear lever setup resembles a conventional automatic transmission, with no clutch pedal. The transmission essentially simulates manual shifting via automated control. Under normal driving conditions, it operates similarly to a hydraulic automatic transmission, but when stopped, the clutch disengages, so braking is necessary on slopes to prevent rolling. In manual mode, driving feels like operating a manual transmission, with direct power delivery, no clutch pedal operation, and the ability to skip gears when shifting.

Can You Shift Directly from D to L in an Automatic Transmission?

You can shift directly between them since both are forward gears. However, it's important to adjust the speed to around 60 km/h when shifting. Otherwise, if the speed is too high, it may cause a strong jerking sensation, excessive impact on the transmission, and reduce its lifespan. Below is an introduction to the various gears in an automatic transmission car: P (Parking) Gear: This is the "Park" gear, used when parking. After arriving at your destination or when parking for an extended period, shift the gear lever into this position. Note: The vehicle must be completely stopped before shifting into P gear. Shifting into P gear before the vehicle has fully stopped can damage parts of the automatic transmission. When in P gear, the wheels are mechanically locked, preventing the vehicle from moving forward or backward. Therefore, always use P gear when parking on slopes. Additionally, during short stops (e.g., at traffic lights), it's best not to shift into P gear to avoid severe transmission damage in case of a rear-end collision. R (Reverse) Gear: This is the "Reverse" gear, used when backing up. To reverse, press the safety button on the lever to shift into R gear. However, ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before shifting to avoid serious transmission damage. N (Neutral) Gear: This is the "Neutral" gear, also known as the neutral position. At traffic lights, you can shift into this gear and press the brake pedal. If the wait is long, it's advisable to engage the handbrake, allowing your foot to rest. A common misconception is that shifting into N gear while coasting downhill or at high speeds saves fuel. This is incorrect—it not only doesn’t save fuel but can also damage the transmission. D (Drive) Gear: This is the "Drive" gear, used for forward motion. Shift into this gear, press the accelerator, and the vehicle will move. In this gear, the transmission automatically shifts based on speed and throttle input. At traffic lights, you can remain in D gear while pressing the brake. For short waits, this is fine, but prolonged stops can raise transmission fluid temperature and degrade its quality. L (Low) Gear: This is the "Low" gear, used for low-speed forward motion. In this gear, the transmission operates only in low gear (equivalent to 1st gear in a manual transmission) and does not shift automatically based on speed. This gear is typically used for climbing or descending steep slopes. In low gear, the drive wheels deliver high torque, providing sufficient power for steep climbs. Prolonged braking can overheat brake pads, reducing braking effectiveness—a significant hazard on long or steep descents. Shifting into L gear uses the engine's low RPM to control the vehicle's speed, eliminating the need for constant braking. M (Manual) Gear: This is the manual mode, allowing the driver to manually shift gears up or down. It can be used for climbing or descending slopes and for quick overtaking. S (Sport) Gear: This is the "Sport" mode. In S gear, the car achieves instant acceleration, and the high engine RPM helps remove carbon deposits. Many automatic cars have an S gear. In Sport mode, the transmission shifts freely but delays shifts to keep the engine at high RPMs longer, maintaining low-gear, high-RPM operation for greater torque and acceleration—though at higher fuel consumption.

How is tire dynamic balancing performed?

Tire dynamic balancing is performed as follows: 1. Remove the tire from the vehicle and secure it on the balancing machine. 2. Input the required values as prompted by the balancing machine. 3. Rotate the tire to read the dynamic balance deviation value. 4. Add balancing weights for correction. 5. Reinstall the corrected tire onto the vehicle, completing the dynamic balance correction. Dynamic balancing should be performed under the following circumstances: 1. After replacing a new tire or repairing following a collision accident. 2. When there is uneven wear on one side of the front or rear tires. 3. When the steering wheel feels excessively heavy or floats and shakes during driving. 4. When the vehicle veers to the left or right while driving straight. 5. Even in the absence of the above conditions, for maintenance purposes, it is recommended to perform dynamic balancing on new vehicles after 9 months of driving, and subsequently every six months or 10,000 kilometers.
